SEOUL, South Korea, Apr. 21, 2021 – Leading environmental home appliances company, Coway has announced its innovative air purifiers are now available in Germany through Amazon. Consumers can also explore Coway products through its new dedicated German website(de.coway.com).

A high-quality air purifier is now a must-have home item. After spending more time indoors, people have realized better indoor air quality leads to a higher quality of life. More and more people are looking for air purifiers that are effective, efficient, and also aesthetic.

Coway is launching five select award-winning air purifiers from the Coway Airmega lineup. These are the Airmega 150, Airmega 300S, Airmega Jet, Airmega Mighty (Also well-known as the AP-1512HH), and Airmega Hue&Healing (Humidifying air purifier model). Each product boasts the highest quality standards and fits seamlessly with consumers' unique lifestyles and varying needs. They cover spaces of all sizes and improve air quality to reduce allergy symptoms, create a more pleasant home office environment, and allow for a better night's sleep.

Coway Airmega air purifiers feature innovative technology that is ideal for those looking to reduce allergens. The industry-leading advanced filtration system removes up to 99.999% of fine particles from air down to nano-sized particles as fine as 0.01 microns[1] which are smaller than bacteria and viruses.

The core of the filtration is consisted of the washable pre-filter to filter large dust and hair, the active carbon filter to remove bad smells and VOCs(volatile organic compound), and the HEPA filter to remove the extra fine particles like dust, allergen, bacteria, mold, virus and more. For the European market, Coway is certified by the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF) for sensitive allergy control.

One innovative feature applied to the HEPA is the GreenHEPA™ Technology which is double-safe protection from viruses and bacteria. This is applied to the HEPA filter and has undergone external laboratory testing specifically for viruses, bacteria, mold, and pollen. This technology ensures the HEPA filter effectively captures up to 99.99% of the virus[2], bacteria, mold, and pollen[3] from the air and also prevents the captured particles from growing any further making them neutralized[4] for consumer safety.

All Coway Airmega air purifiers show current air quality via an indicator and are equipped with a smart auto mode that detects the surrounding air quality and adjusts the fan speed accordingly.

One of the most desirable points of Coway Airmega air purifiers is their design. The sleek form of Coway Airmega blends seamlessly into even the most minimalist home and space.

The iconic Airmega 150 model is a triple design award winner from Good Design Award, iF Design Award, and the IDEA Award. The Airmega 150 has a sleek, modern design and comes in 3 stunning colors of Dove White, Saige Green, and Peony Pink.
 
Coway Airmega 300S is another design awarded model and also the most powerful air purifier out of Coway’s 5 launching products. The 300S is a unique model with a strong dual suction power and delivers CADR(Clean air delivery rate) of 575 m³/h covering large spacious spaces up to 149 m². The 300S is compatible with Google, Amazon devices and also with Coway’s mobile app(IoCare App) for Wi-Fi remote control and filter alerts.

Coway Airmega Jet was named "Europe's Best Air Purifier" in December 2020 by Testfakta, a prestigious Swedish international product testing laboratory. The Airmega Jet went through extensive testing with 13 air purifiers to prove its quality and performance. Its unique MegaJet™ technology supports optimal dynamic airflow. This rare function lets consumers choose whether the clean air comes out from the top or front of the product.

The launch lineup also includes Coway’s best-selling Airmega Mighty, also well known as the Coway AP-1512HH in the US. This product received rave reviews in the US and has been named on the New York Times' Wirecutter's "Best Air Purifier" list for seven consecutive years from 2015 to 2021.
